https://substack.com/home/post/p-190246264My words: We all knew something like this is likely what happened because she drew hundreds of thousands of people and he drew hundreds, if that. Well, we weren't alone.
Added Note: About "This Will Hold". They are legit, however, they do keep their identities anonymous.
'Receipts attached. The question now is what legislators and the media will do about it.'
'Watching Kamala Harriss vote totals decline by millions across swing states on election night sent our team down a year-long rabbit hole to understand why reported totals were moving backward. That is, until we uncovered the five fake ghost counties containing millions of votesand realized we were onto something.
And we werent alone in noticing irregularities. In Pennsylvania, state Rep. Frank Burns (D) watched his own totals move backward as well. He ultimately won, but began asking questionsand so did we.
After more than a year of pressing for legislative and criminal investigations, we knew we had to find irrefutable evidence....'
Trump and Musks hints and innuendo about stealing the election didnt prompt scrutiny or action, and neither did statistically anomalous swing-state data. More than 200 Russian bomb threats, widespread election equipment malfunctions, and documented breaks in ballot chain-of-custody procedures didnt either.
Then, while digging into numbers that made no statistical sense and blatant post-election record changes, we found the math: a simple A + B = C equationone that doesnt require analysts or statisticians to understand but should never appear in an election.
This is how we caught them.'

There is as much evidence for 2024 election denialism as there is for 2020 election denialism:

Election denialism is a faulty coping mechanism to avoid the emotional pain of grieving a loss at the polls, and does not help us prepare for the challenges that lie ahead in the midterms.

(22,998 posts)Just like Rudi, they have theories, but no evidence.
If they had receipts, as in factual, verifiable evidence, they would have no trouble finding a lawyer to take the case to court and put their law license on the line to introduce the evidence in front of a judge.
But no lawyer wants to lose their means for earning a living, as Rudy, Sidney and several other lawyers did after the 2020 election.

(43,294 posts)Elon uploaded vote tabulator codes of battleground states a month BEFORE vote tabulations on election day, then downloaded changed codes to those tabulators ahead of time so that the R win counts were by a slim 1%. Yep, he bragged about it.
Just because FactCheck says "Experts said voting machines are not connected to the internet during tabulation" only means that those "experts" overlooked that the tabulating codes could easily have been changed before tabulation day. And that's what Elon's Starlink did. And Elon allows Russia to have access to Starlink.

It's hard to tell....
Maybe we should hand recount the votes cast using paper ballots. That might expose the truth.
After all, several organizations did that in some states after the 2020 election, and proved that Trump did not win.
And when the media consortium hand recounted the votes from Florida in 2000, they proved that Gore won.
I think we are all interested in the truth.

Last week I posted a video with the title Yes, Theres New Evidence that the 2024 Election Was Hacked which showed five different fake counties in swing states with a total of almost 20 million votes which I suggested could be smoking gun evidence of an election hack in progress. Today Im going to tell you why that theory was wrong that the fake counties were definitely simply glitches displayed by Decision Desk HQ interface, how those glitches happened, and how I came to believe that they were something that they werent.
Theres an old saying on the Internet that if you want to get the right answer about something that you just need to post the wrong one and someone, somewhere in the comments will correct you. And correct me they did. In fact, the evidence is so compelling that its basically irrefutable.
More important: this is also a story about my interactions with a group called The Common Coalition, which also goes by This Will Hold on substack, which I now believe is intentionally distorting election evidence and undermining any attempt for an honest assessment of the 2024 election.
Indeed, considering my interactions with them over the last six months, I believe that it is entirely possible that they are more than a group of earnest citizens overtaken by confirmation bias, but are, in fact, backed by a foreign intelligence service.

...........................................................................
However, we all know that Russians have been heavily involved in election interference since at least 2016. The FBI is still looking for several Russian military intelligence agents who have tried to hack election systems, and, more importantly, used social media to sow discord and distrust in the American election process. Investigative journalist Benn Jordan put out a report earlier this year indicating that the system is so pervasive and sophisticated that as many as one in three interactions on social media are actually with bot accounts.
The goal of military disinformation campaigns isnt to directly sway an elections results, but rather make it impossible to trust anything at all that you read online and to make you feel helpless and apathetic to reality. I believe that This Will Hold and the Common Coalition fit the profile of an intelligence operation precisely because they have zero accountability. They promote knowingly fake election theories into the public sphere in order to sow confusion among people who have more reliable information.
This does not mean that everyone in the Common Coalition is a Russian asset, only but that the top of the coalition would be exactly that. At the very least they would be what the FSB calls a useful idiot.
At this point, their conspiracy theories are so popular that they drown out more nuanced analysis by Smart Elections and the Election Truth Allianceboth of which are groups that have transparent founders that you can vet directly.

Wiz Imp
(9,853 posts)You can see here with Allen County North Carolina, the screen actually flips between a statewide screen and the transposed Allen county screen with the vote totals remaining the same in both cases. The same is true for Michigans Oklahoma County, Georgias Hamilton County and, of course, Burke County Florida.
I find this evidence pretty much irrefutable. The fake counties were simply glitches caused by transpositional errors during an exceedingly long livestream rather than evidence that fake counties were used as a bank of phantom votes that would later be covertly distributed to flip the election. To be clear, Im not weighing in on whether the election was hacked or not, so much as stating that this particular evidence just does not add up.

Buddyzbuddy
(2,509 posts)There are rational, intelligent people researching this with the knowledge that it will not reverse the election. Their purpose is not to reverse it, but to prevent it from happening again if it was stolen. Facts are facts and if the facts are being lied about the truth will be revealed.
This isn't anything like 2020 where all attempts to overturn the election, dozens, were defeated in court. There was an army of kooks and liars, I mean lawyers working on behalf of a nutjob that knew it was a lie. He admitted as much. For him, it was life and death, he had to win. And lo and behold, in spite of so many Republicans, many from his Administration, coming out and speaking the truth against him he "won" all of the swing states. He did so well the first time, people couldn't wait for him to be back in office?
I've accepted that he is the President for no other reason than, there is nothing to be done about it now. But just because he's made election denial a farcical sport doesn't mean it couldn't be true for Nov. 2024. The same people act as though they are the watchdogs of truth and continue to try to convince others not to doubt the election, don't look for facts to disprove what they believe to be true because it's not possible, it didn't happen.
If they're that convinced then why worry about what other people are researching. If it bothers you personally, then don't read it. Frankly, it makes me suspicious of their intent, their motivation. Any intelligent rational person IMHO would ignore it and move on. I would just chock it up to kooks and liars and not waste my time. Instead, the same players are trying to convince people not to look, not to listen. Almost as though they work for opposition or have an unhealthy need to be contrary.
This is not meant to be a personal attack against healthy dialog, only a defense in favor of open dialog of different opinions and debate of facts research and analysis.
Fact: the Felon is the President.
Fact: the elections were certified.
Fact: there were and are unexplained anomalies that occurred.

The whole country in New York were nobody voted for Harris was a single precinct that voted in lockstep previously because it's a tiny religious community. The Pennsylvania county with 400% turnout, had 80% turnout. They are liars grifting off people.

(100 posts)I don't think This Will Hold is the best source of the evidence of massive election fraud in 2024 (changing of vote counts after the election via the vote-counting computers). We need some specific audits comparing paper ballots with recorded county results. ElectionTruthAlliance.org.is suing a few counties to perform these audits.
Computers are not adding machines. Computers count our votes in secret in whatever way they are programed to count. Computers are always hackable. People in charge of voting machines say they are not connected to the Internet. However, precinct counts are usually transmitted to the county via cellular modems. Ding, ding, ding. We have a winning situation for the precinct vote counts being changed before they are recorded by the county.
This is why mail-in voting is hated by Republicans. The mail-in votes go directly to the county. No chance for Internet access to change the vote counts.

(65,903 posts)Keep doing the investigating. I feel its been like a drip drip drip that is confirming my suspicions. I know there is a ton of ignorance in this.country - an unbelievable amount. And the political cluelessness even sometimes affects those on our side. For example, Alicia Silverstone supported Bernie. In this past election, she supported RFK Jr. with much gushing! I wonder how she feels now that he is one of Trumps cabinets worst? Too bad because Ive always liked her. Anyway despite the tons of ignorance, I have always had the feeling that Kamala really won.

(9,853 posts)From the video I poosted a link to:
for safety and legal reasons, members of our team dont go on the record publicly. That doesnt change authorship of the work or ownership of the analysis, and it doesnt undermine the reporting itself.
Thats an interesting take, because as you can see from this channel, a real investigative journalist understands that they cant be anonymous and credible at the same time. If there is personal danger, you have to be willing to take that risk. The legal worries they have seem to be they dont want to be held accountable for libel.
Im not declining to appear on the show lightly. Im currently battling stage 3 cancer, in the middle of an aggressive round of chemotherapy, have three more surgeries, and frankly its miserable. Going on-air just isnt feasible right now. The goal here is coordination, accuracy, and forward momentum. Hope that helps clear things up.
This does not ring credible to me. While I have no idea about the health history of This Will Hold, it feels manipulative to throw cancer into the mix to get out of an interview. Indeed, if there are 62 people in the organization, why wouldnt someone else be able to fill that role?
These are not the actions of a legitimate organization.

Russian Twitter disinformation campaigns reach across the American political spectrum
2) Our results make it clear that group identities are at the core of the IRAs attack strategy. Political audiences were addressed as liberals, conservatives, and Black people to provoke anger against oppositional outgroups. Each group was paired with a specific set of opponents: the IRA presented conservatives with outrages committed by liberals, immigrants, CNN, George Soros, and others; liberals witnessed the travesties of the Trump administration, Republicans in general, and evangelical Christians; and Black users were confronted with an endless cavalcade of racism, often perpetrated by white police officers.There was very little policy-related or even horse-race campaign content to be foundmost tweets were devoted to vilifying political and social adversaries. Other tweets supported the core group identity in affirmative ways, such as conservative tweets celebrating law enforcement and the military and Black posts spotlighting Black history and achievements. Individuals who identify as members of targeted groups ran a disproportionate risk of exposure to IRA disinformation over the study time period. The 2020 election may put them in a similar position (Linvill & Warren, 2019).
Buddyzbuddy
(2,509 posts)Or that polling places were reduced in majority minority precincts to increase wait times at those polling places while simultaneously increasing the locations for white or Republican precincts to shorten the wait times to vote.
Laws were passed to keep citizens from passing out water bottles to voters. There are other numerous obvious policies and laws that have been implemented to reduce the amount of voters.
The Supreme Court Justice, Robert's removed protections from minorities right to vote stating that voting is not a right and minorities no longer need protections because there is no more discrimination.
Are these not all actions to impact election integrity?
If they're willing to do and say these things in public, why is it so impossible to believe the 2024 election may have been tampered with.
As for the receipts and why hasn't a lawyer taken them and sued in court.
1. To what end. It won't overturn the election.
2. Why would anybody wear a bullseye when this Administration with the full backing of the U.S. Gov't has proven itself to be vindictive in spite of violating the Constitution.
3. The best strategy in my opinion is to gather the "receipts" and present them to the proper authorities when the Felon can't do anything about it.
If election tampering can be proven it would involve a conspiracy involving many powerful people.
